Windows 7 laptops...?

[Steph Dale]

Guys,

Recognising that Windows 8 is now all but ubiquitous I wonder if any of you guys have come across any Windows 7 bargains recently?

I'm in the market for a 15" or so laptop running one of the 64-bit versions of Windows 7 so I can make use of TurboCAD v18 when I'm away from home. Doesn't have to be new, but probably does have to be a i3, i5 or i7 series processor.

Thoughts would be welcome...!

S'alright guys - after a more detailed search I've now found exactly what I was after...

Probably in Mickoo's anorak cupboard...

Must admit I thought this was a competition to win a laptop when I first read the thread title! Oh well, technology has never been my strong point

..... technology has never been my strong point

From what I gather, it wasn't Windows7's strong point either....

Needing a new laptop, I thought this thread might be a competition to win one of the seven. Apparently not!

Even if it was a competition to win one of seven laptops im not that lucky to win anyway

Argos Online have/had some good deals on new Lenovo G580 i3 machines. I actually found that Argos themselves were selling them cheaper still on ebay.

To be fair, even Lenovo's price to sell one directly was also attractive...
